Colloidal Cu/ZnO nanocatalysts for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol

This thesis centres on the development of colloidal nanoparticles for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol. Chapter two focusses on the synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles through the hydrolysis of diethylzinc in the presence of sub-stoichiometric quantities of organic ligands. Ch...
